+Conntrackt
+==========
+
+Conntrackt (Connection Tracker) is a simple Django application for tracking
+connection requirements between different entities in a network.
+
+The application was written with intention to be used by system adminstrators
+and integrators that deploy servers on customer premises, and need to keep tight
+track of possible communication links between different entities in the
+project.
+
+In addition to keeping track of connections, the application has the ability to
+generate simple *iptables* rules based on the connections specified. The
+generated rules can be easily applied using the *iptables-restore* utility.
+
+
+Features
+========
+
+In short, Conntrackt provides support for the following:
+
+* Multiple independent projects
+* Grouping entities inside of project by location
+* Entities can be individual devices or networks
+* Entities can have multiple network interfaces
+* *iptables* rule generation (per-entity/location/project)
+
+For more information, please have a look at full documentation at one of the
+following websites:
